Thanks to Rockland, Maine History’s Facebook page, last week’s Throwback Thursday photo was submitted by Maynard Dean. It was the Socony Service Station, on a 4th of July sale at the corner of Main and Rankin Streets. One of PenBay Pilot’s commenters, Mike McMahon said, “This was my grandfather's [Charles (Chick) McMahon] gas station. It was on the corner of Main and Rankin Streets where the newest addition to the Rankin Block is today. My grandfather started the business during the second World War.
